Micro-making of its versatile, I use it primarily to make the sound of my battery with no other micro elsewhere (except in a micro rotten crossroads in my bass drum with the bass all the way to the equalo). So it's a micro elecrtostatique Alymer 48v phantom mandatory. Possibilities swich a high pass filter directly above. It is intuitive, you clip the mic, you branch, you play.

OVERALL OPINION

"Hi, I do not want to pay 350 for the pair rode NT5 What is your least expensive overhead you advise a beginner in making drum sound ?..."
This is how I found these two boxes contenan Prodipe A1 there is more than a week. The first observation pakaging all rotten. Needless say to me, even to the extent that the microphone is served in a waterproof bag contenans him even a bag of salt against moisture all supplied in a foam that maintains the microphone and very well and also found in a cavity provided for this purpose pliers and hats, that's very good. What is less so is that everything is in a box no thicker than a box of cereal packets and no notice or paper is provided with quelquonque, for curve reponce Frequency directionality or characteristics, must be read on the box, seri no, it smells a micro economics before even having to connect.
I a branch at the beginning, history has my little mixer (mx2/10 yam) and I play earphones (senha HD 290), first impressions: Oaaao, it sounds like real drums a cot the sound is great respect, after reading a small curve in frequency reponce, I note that it is relatively plastic, there is certainly a slight bump to 3000Hz, but personally I feel it. Anyway the sound is very clean, good point.
Second good point, which is more gadjet but hey if you ca used beeps in your bass drum separately (recommended), there is a small mic on the high pass swich asser practice. The sound is very clean, I'm surprised it is not recommend for making string sound (even if I did not test still has AC): The definition is very good, with my ping rise is very well transcribed.
The reponce in frequency is wide and flat, the characteristic honest, and it smells multipurpose use: it works very well in overhead battery but I know that making the piano or chamber music is very cool ( luis careful not too big a meter sound pressure, in my opinion he would like to be in the flag of copper, it is not meant to).
Celas said I hope he is strong, it's a good electrostatic okay so it can not be, but in any case, there are marked "live and studio" on the box, personal I do not see me from anywhere with lugging my lair not very strong, we'll see over time.
Phantom power supply required, so as XLR cabling (I actually have ^ ^), I regret just a packing list on the cheap but the price (I got a 65 one), it does not matter. In any case we can make things very HOnet with this microphone, it does not disappointed me.
A meter in any hands inexperienced or greedy for knowledge in the hands of pros who n'on not want to risk taking a walk around their overs at 400.
In short very good value for price, EXCELLENT same, what has it taken the super class. One feels not the ear that has a first prize Aillan test Beringher b5, though more expensive, I prefer the A1, because the level difference is Cerrer then for 20 or 30 euros less ...

J'emmet just a reserve on his life, but ...
For an overhead overhead is honest has been a pittance for what it is. What more?

Council has the con, grow well and back to his feet to leave a micro comfortable margin on the arm of a drummer, a Mechan wand into the microphone, or just in the foot could record long and painful cracks in the ears or m I just rot micro irreversible (electrostatic forces). I ADVISED board con ^ ^
